For what, two or three hours in a soundbooth?
That ain't bad at all.

These games have much more dialogue than that.

I'm not surprised. Voice acting pay is incredibly low, and it would have been even worse 25 years ago. She hadn't been doing it for long, and VA for games wasn't burgeoning yet.

That was in 1998 though. Hardly comparable to a game made today.

I don't think a choice actor deserves as much as everyone else who actually did far more to make the game, but $1.2k is a papyrus amount. Guess all that matters is if it's in line with the industry

Clarke probably only has like the 6th most voice lines at best. He disappears from the codec for a large portion of the game, right?

25 year old spoiler, because I know you're thinking of Liquid which is understandable BUT he was also the VA for Master Miller.

It's a shame because mgs 1 was the best one/only good one. It still had all the accents. I dont know if she also lost her accent but I definitely remember she was blonde in 1 and then somehow black hair in 4

Hmm, didn't care for that performance much from what I remember. I didn't hate it, though.

I love how well MGS's voice acting held up over most other games from the late 90s.

Why? Was it because of the scene where she was rubbing up on the vampire guy for some reason?

If you want some mindblow, here's some NES voice acting from 1991 that still holds up.

Did Jennifer Hale stop voice acting? I think the only thing she did within the last couple of years was Bayonetta.

There's slightly less chance of getting a severe concussion from doing voice work.

For me, I think the thing that makes me cry most at night is losing Mei Ling and Revolver ocelot's voice accent.

Also dropping liquid's british accent was such a bad creative decision

I remember it was the point of reference for voice acting quality. Kris Zimmerman was a voice director at Hanna-Barbera, and she brought that experience to video games. After that, games like Grandia 2 or Soul Reaver would be touted as having either the voice actors or the people involved in the voice production of MGS in previews.

Makes me wonder how much she got paid for the MGS1 remake on the Gamecube, the Twin Snakes

I imagine it was higher, but how much higher?

I know that, thats why I mentioned the Codec. Miller is unreachable on the codec for large portions of the game, hinting that hes actually Liquid. Like Im pretty sure the Russian lady who lectures you on nuclear proliferation has twice the voice lines as Clarke. Then again I only played Twin Snakes so maybe its different.

MGS was such a break through on voice acting. Not surprising that they didn't get paid much back then though.
